Personally I always download the source. 1) I prefer to put it where I please. This will be especially true for you if your running multiple blogs and want to share the code as I do. 2) Updates sometimes require special handling. You don't want to drop an new version in automatically and have it require database updates that need to be done manually or via a script or control panel. 3) some updates of wordpress are not as stable as some would think.
